 Evergreen
...a ministry for Median and Senior Adults aged 55+
Some of God’s longtime friends have found a
place of fellowship and ministry in Harlingen. They are a part of
the Mature Adult Ministry at First Baptist Church. At FBC
Harlingen our emphasis is not about age, it’s about people - it’s
about you!
Our mission is to share with individuals in this season
of life in their desire to grow, serve, and pass on a Christian heritage
to the generations that follow. We do this through 4 key areas:
- Spiritual Enrichment – Sunday
School at 9:30 a.m. (a variety of classes are offered) and fall
and spring Monday's with Senior Adult Choir at 10:00 a.m. followed by lunch and a Bible Study of Revelation beginning at 11:00 a.m. These opportunities
give mature adults a chance to grow in the grace and nurture of our
Lord God.
- Life Long Learning – Learning opportunities,
both informal and formal are offered. Seminars, conferences, and
outings on topics of interest to mature adults help keep this generation
interested and interesting.
- Socialization – Day trips, overnight trips,
parties, and dinners. Something for everybody!
- Service Opportunities – Mission trips, mission
education meetings, homebound ministry, and food
pantry ministry. A place of service for everyone!
